Sunday mornings in the spring time have got to be the best time of the whole week and year. As I sit in my favorite rocking chair on the back deck, it's just cool enough to be comfy in my sweatshirt and joggers (my uniform during this staycation), birds are chirping and singing and bouncing… Continue reading Easy Like Sunday Morning
Snakey Casey
Yesterday, around 6ish in the evening, my husband urgently tapped on the back door, signaling for me to hurry out to the deck. Now, my sense of urgency did not match his, because he often signals for me to come outside in order to show me things like frogs, lizards, deer, etc. Not that I… Continue reading Snakey Casey
A Reminder
This week I added something new to my to do list: email two classes of students individually each day for three days. Starting on Wednesday I used Google Classroom to send an individual email to each student. It's mostly the same email with a change made to personalize it for each student. I hit send,… Continue reading A Reminder
Rest in Peace, Kosmo
Yesterday our sweet old man, Kosmo Kramer, went to the big dog park in the sky. He was the sweetest, cuddliest of our three puppers. He loved his humans and his humans loved him SO SO SO much. We miss him dearly and remember him so fondly. I'm just going to leave some pictures in… Continue reading Rest in Peace, Kosmo
Stir Crazy
Today I feel a little stir crazy. It's absolutely GORGEOUS outside, but I don't want to leave Kosmo alone right now, so I can't go for a walk. He likes going outside, but not for long, so my trips into the sunshine are short lived. I just ate a poptart. That's where I am at… Continue reading Stir Crazy
Nothing New
I don't have much to say today. I'm about to start cleaning things to distract myself. I dropped Kosmo off at the vet this morning after his 3rd seizure in about 28 hours. He had another one last night at 8:30 and then again this morning at 8:10 am. Wanda is currently glued to my… Continue reading Nothing New
Sick Pupper
We have three dogs and our oldest, Kosmo Kramer, turns 14 in two months. He has a rough couple years. Two years ago, Komso tore his ACL. He had surgery and recovered quite nicely. Fun fact: Dogs who get ACL repair surgery have a 70% chance of tearing their other ACL. Well guess what, Kosmo… Continue reading Sick Pupper
No Chicken
On our menu for today, because of the rain, was a roasted whole chicken with roasted pan veggies and mashed potatoes. Yesterday, during our weekly run to the Piggly Wiggly, my husband could find no chicken. The entire section was wiped out. I thought it was fine, we could just cook some chicken breasts which… Continue reading No Chicken
Heart Mermaid
When I was little, maybe six or seven, I had to have an ultrasound on my heart. I have no idea why or what triggered that move, but I do kind of remember the cold of the jelly on my chest and the weird black and white image on the screen. What I definitely remember,… Continue reading Heart Mermaid
Proactive Fail
So this morning I decided to email all of my students' parents and guardians to make sure that all kids were signed up for the new Google Classroom for the 4th 9 weeks, and to share some info, etc. Well. It was a great idea that turned into a giant waste of time. Let me… Continue reading Proactive Fail
